摘要: Birds are known to be important dispersers of plants, since the passage seeds through digestive tract often has a positive influence on germination percentage and speed. In this study, proportions in different substrates were compared between Myrsine (Myrsinaceae) collected manually those ingested by birds. The guilds birds that fed M. umbellata lancifolia identified comprise 24 12 species, respectively. A higher proportion was found among defecated sowed study area. also differences frugivores both synchronopatric species. Therefore, we suggest food sources play for enhance Myrsine.
